CAP Staff Members
Bridgette Scott - CAP Director
I have been employed by the Cambridge Community Activities Program, as the Director, since its creation in September 2003. Over the past 4 years I have had the pleasure to develop the Activities Program and watch it grow into the flourishing program it is today. I am thrilled to offer the Cambridge Community so many recreational opportunities, including the newly added aquatics program and the youth center.Prior to my job as Activities Director, I completed my degree at UW-Stevens Point, majoring in Health Promotion and Wellness. During my time at Stevens Point, I worked as a personal trainer, aerobics instructor, and peer health advisor on campus. After graduation, I interned for Marian College and the Fond du Lac County Health Department creating and implementing health and recreational programs. My background in the health field fuels my passion for recreation and fitness.
I feel very privileged to have the opportunity to work with the Cambridge-area community, truly a one-of-a-kind community! I believe strongly in the importance of recreation and its benefits to the community. I enjoy the excitement and challenge of the ongoing development and expansion of the Activities Program. I believe the Cambridge area is a great place to live, and the Community Activities Program is striving to make it even better! I hope my enthusiasm is contagious and you will take a moment to browse the CAP website to see what we have to offer you!
Lesli Buehler - CAP Aquatics Coordinator
As the Aquatics Coordinator, it is my goal to develop the Cambridge Area Community Pool to its fullest potential by providing aquatics programming to the entire Cambridge community. I was delighted when the opportunity came about in April of 2006 for me to return to my home town. As a native of Cambridge I had always hoped to be able to return and raise my family here.I completed my Bachelors degree in Health, Human Performance, and Recreation from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. During college I interned at the Janesville YMCA and Prairie Athletic Club in Sun Prairie. These opportunities further developed my interest for fitness and recreation. Post graduation, I worked as a certified personal trainer and group exercise instructor in the Illinois area. I believe in continual education and I have completed the Aquatic Facility Operator certification through the National Parks and Recreation Association.
I encourage all community members to visit the beautiful Cambridge Area Community Pool and take advantage of all we have to offer.
Jody Wilke - CAP Youth Center Coordinator
I began working at the Cambridge Area Youth Center in May of 2004. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin- La Crosse in 2003 with a degree in Recreation Management. While in college I worked for an after school drop-in program and at a Summer Day Camp; therefore the majority of my previous experience has been working with youth.Middle school-aged youth are very easily influenced and vulnerable during these years in their life. By providing a safe and fun place for youth to come, we are doing our part to protect them from any risky behaviors. I have a wide variety of personal interests including crafts, outdoor activities, sports, health, and friendships. I try to take these activities and turn them into ones youth that attend the youth center can enjoy as well.
As of January 1, 2007, CAP began management of the Youth Center. I am extremely pleased with this transition, and believe it will only benefit the youth of the Cambridge community. The Youth Center has come a long way since its inception in 1998, as it currently averages 30 youth per day.
Please feel free to stop in the Youth Center at any time or call me for more information. ALL youth are welcome at the Youth Center!
